• Palm Pre: Cannot set a song as ringtone

  I just got my pre and downloaded music from my iTunes. But I can't put a song as a ringtone. I tried to put it to specific contacts, as it says I can, but it doesn't work. I choose a song, but I will come back for ringtones of the system where I come to hit "done" so he does not save (appears on the initial screen, 'Edit'). The contact will still say "set a ringtone" or sometimes I get the error message "unable to add ringtone. File may already exist"(probably because I keep trying but it does not work!)

  Someone at - it a solution or what step am I missing?

  Nevermind, I figured it! I didn't know that it moves the song on-screen system ringtones!

• Multi-task on Palm Pre does not work

  Hi all

  I was under the impression that it was possible on the Palm Pre multitasking.

  When I start a spring Radio channel and launch a different application of the radio channel stops - unfortunately.

  No idea what's wrong here? Of course, a radio app should be able to run in the background.

  Thank you!

  Hello Sapag and thanks for posting...

  When Sprint TV's request was written, the multi tasking was not enabled on the application itself.  This is partly by design.  Radio and video streaming strongly uses the battery.  In addition, the deployment of the device limited the amount of time developers had to tweek the current application for the Pre.  Remember, this is the first true multi-tasking OS for a mobile device.  As time passes, additional patches will be correct and/or add functionality to the device and apps built into the ROM.

  Thanks for the comments and keep the questions coming...

  Thank you

• Palm Pre crazy symptoms: 'phone in offline mode', won't charge battery, won't start, message error "an error has occurred that cannot be resolved.

  This is a long description of a series of problems with my new Palm Pre. You can search text to find your specific problem. There is no solution in my post. Looking for possible answers in future responses.

  I bought my Palm Pre 4 days ago and it arrived 2 days ago. Phone was working fine. Last night I plugged the phone and updated the operating system. After, I've selected "Done" and went to bed.

  -First set of questions: 'Phone offline', will not charge battery.

  In the upper left corner of the phone, there is the message "phone offline. Although the phone was in charge all night, it reads "battery of 26%. I called the general number of on the Sprint tech support and we tried the following things:

  (1) the phone reboots (press on and hold the power button / stop, then select 'Disable'. After setting down, hold down power button / power stop.)

  (2) to reset the phone (several ways - call tech support so that you do this properly)

  The individual Sprint and then sent me to another tech support person, likely to level 2.

  -Second series of questions: message error "an error has occurred that cannot be resolved;

  #2 Sprint tech support person had me also to restart and reset the phone in a number of ways. In his own words 'we tried all the palm pre stuff I know' and whenever the phone was insensitive. Often, we received the message error "the phone is in offline mode. We did a full erase and after that the phone will not re-start is no longer. At this point, the error message came up saying "an error has occurred that cannot be resolved" that referred me to www.palm.com for assistance. I think it's important to note here that this was not the typical error message (black screen with white letters) but rather the blue sky with a translucent box on background with white text.

  #2 Sprint tech support person then me connected with the support of the Palm and the dance continued. Yet once, we tried a whole bunch of reset and restart and the erasure of the options. Palm support asked me to go to: www.palm.com/rom to download WebOS Doctor, which I did. I downloaded the file. Although that was the case he had hold the button "volume +" and connect the phone to the charger. This caused a USB symbol will appear on the phone. When the record was complete, I got an error message which could not run the file. Palm tech support person seemed surprised. I mentioned that I was on a Mac and he said he couldn't help me. He me transferred to another person from Palm support that works with Mac users.

  Palm #2 tech support person advised me that I should have selected the download option 'mac' on www.palm.com/rom. I verbally walked him through the series of Web pages, telling him it is said that you need Windows (any version) or Mac (whatever version), but that at no time was there a possibility to download another WebOS doctor for different operating systems. After an exchange of views over she told me that she would have to have someone call back me tomorrow.

  -Third series of questions: phone stuck on the USB symbol.

  So for the moment, the phone is completely useless. Not fantastic. I started the mac on Windows 7 and downloaded WebOS Doc and received the same error message. I also ran Windows Vista virtually and received the same error message. Later this afternoon, I head into work to try the same thing on Windows XP.

  In the meantime, I got on this forum and found a thread that has provided a direct link to the necessary file:

  Palm.CDNetworks.net/Staging/ROM/webosdoctorp100ewwsprint.jar

  After downloading this file, I realized could totally be a virus, I was able to get WebOS Doc work on my computer. It took that I recharge the phone before, and now it's on the screen that says 'do not disconnect your phone' and the full file of 3%. Only... it was completed for almost 30 minutes to 3%.

  I hope that Palm will follow-up with me tomorrow, but I'm leaving on a business trip at 7:00 and I would love to have the thing work. All suggestions are welcome, even if you can just tell me how to get her think disconnected safely before my flight tomorrow. I want to get through security with my phone plugged into my laptop.

  Thank you.

  I picked up the phone at the local Sprint store and the sales ago replaced the phone. They were unable to understand what went wrong and, essentially, has declared a complete failure of the unit. I'm sorry that I'm not able to offer better news, but I hope that this info is useful to you.

• Palm Pre issues I'm having.

  I used facebook to add friends to my contact list on my new Palm Pre today. My father didn't is not on Facebook so I had to break his info into my phone on my contact list... not much. When I added his home address, the pre for some reason any linked my facebook account to my contact information for dads. Putting my info in my dads contacts. There is no way to erase it. He said that when I try to delete contacts that I would have to delete all Facebook contacts. ID rather not start over... (frustrated) :/

  This really needs to be fixed quickly! I read the other fourms, and many people have simular problems.

  Palm please provide a way to delete a contact that is downloaded from Facebook, or Outlook. without having to delete all my contacts and start all over again. It's really * beep * boring!

  If anyone has any advice please help

  All you have to do is to separate the 2 profiles. Click the Contact in your contacts directory. And then on info here page click on name there at the top. Then it should show both the profiles, click on one and an option is to disassociate the profile, you can also remove the profile from here or do a primary profile. I had a couple do this to me as well, according to the names of people like my brother and the father having the same names. The fact to separate their fixed.

  "Palm, please find a way to delete a contact that is uploaded on Facebook or Outlook." without having to delete all my contacts and start all over again. It's really * beep * boring! »

  As far as I know Facebook is the only one you can't remove it from. You cannot delete the one your talking together is because its connected to facebook. In this menu, as I said above, you can then remove, or break the link to the facebook no one. I agree on wanting to not have all or nothing with facebook. There are a lot of people I just don't want or need it info in my contacts.

  You can delete the others without having to start all over again.

• How to change the voicemail number Palm Pre (Bell Mobility)?

  Hi all...

  I wonder if someone has found a way to change/edit the phone number of voicemail by default on the Palm Pre. When I touch to listen to my voicemail on my pre, it dials my phone number (instead of composing the Bell number requires me to dial which is #902393xxxx pp then my password digital - note the # beforehand), which comes in turn allows me to leave a new message for me.

  I talked to Palm support and they told me that my phone is setup and working correctly and it must be a problem with my service provider. I've been a happy Bell customer for 10 years or more and I am sure that my voicemail works well... Just to be sure I contacted support Bell and they assured me that I have to dial sign # in front of my 10-digit number, then my password to access my voicemail.

  I know I could just program an another SpeedDial to accomplish this task, however, I can't believe that there is no way to use this function as expected?

  Thoughts?

  Thank you...

  Well Yes, it's gets me too. I'll speak to a Bell representative tomorrow, but is this the silver bullet...

  Create a contact in your address book called voicemail

  Then you enter the number you need. I found the # key registers correctly.

  For a sweet break (2 seconds, no prompt) use the letter 't'

  to pause farm (a prompt will appear on the dial to press a key to continue dialing pad) use the letter 'p '.

  That should do it.

  I went a step further. And if you're not too nervous about to search your phone (and if you have time) I made a few changes that did get to voicemail even easier than pulling the top of the dial pad. Slight caveat about this, it is really involved, may be too involved for you, but it made me love what you can do with the Pre

  I went to the Central meadow, I configured my pre for Homebrew applications (not too hard, and had to do it on a computer with XP, it did not Win 7) I downloaded a homebrew application called launch pad (Super easy, done right the phone). I created my voicemail number to be an icon in the launch area. THEN, and this is the super cool part. I touch AND HOLD on one of the icons in the launch at the bottom of the screen until there is a ripple around her. I drag it to the launch area to take him out of the launch bar. Then I reach and grab the voicemail icon, until the ripple and drag it in the launch, and PRESTO, I have a button to access my voicemail.

  Again, I understand that this process may be too involved for you. But with a little sniffing around, I was able to add my voicemail on the launch I can access any program at any time.

  Yes I think Palm should do a better job with documentation. Their new philosophy that people don't want uninvolved help or manual files is silent. BUT I liked the fact that with a little work, you can do MUCH more functional phone. We would have to do the work? No, but I have a good feeling that Palm will impliment better functionality as time passes. They have always in the past. And until that happens, there are a few tweeks that can help until this happens.

  Love the pre so far...

• Palm Pre: audio apps to play in the background of other applications?

  I was in a Sprint store and when to try a few Palm Pre audio paused when I returned to another application (no a/v).  I am told that when you get the phone and update, then the audio application will continue to play in the background while you work in other applications, such as calendar.  Can you confirm this?  Update includes this change?

  Thank you

  A Palm user for a long time

  Hi pkmk,

  It depends on what application you pass too. Calendar, Contacts, E-mail, etc., but all work very well. The trick is, leave the card here. If you get the music off the screen, audio card stop. If leave you it there and just simply switch to another application, audio will continue to play in the background.

• New Palm used Palm Pre profile

  Hello

  I bought a used Palm Pre (Movistar, YOU) and now want to create a new Palm profile so I can use the phone in Australia (Optus, at THE).

  How to set up a new Palm profile on this phone?

  He is currently running WebOS 1.4

  Thank you

  Nick

  Regarding the hacks and things of this nature, it is something that we cannot help here.

  Since the unit locked up on screen language then we would need to restart the device. If this does not resolve the issue, then you will need to use webOS Doctor on the device. Reason for this step is there is no way at this stage of the journal of the unit to do a partial/full erase.

• Will there be an unlocked Version of the Palm Pre 3?

  I am a Palm product user for a long time, looking to upgrade my Treo 650.  I want to buy a unlocked Palm and the only one that I see the Palm Pre 2 is available.  However in a few months, the Palm Pre 3 should be available.

  Will there be an unlocked version of the Palm 3?

  Unfortunately we cannot comment further about future products than what is displayed on our Web site right now, the Palm Pre 2 is available as an unlocked GSM device.

• Palm Pre Touchscreen works do not at all

  My touchscreen palm pre is completely insensitive... I can't do anything at all...
  things I've tried:
  -remove the battery for 1 min or more (maybe max 10 minutes)
  -tried WebOS Doctor to restore (did not work said "cannot restore")

  I'm really scared its broken for good. the last time it worked was this morning. I upgraded 1.2.1 nite last and then this morning I tried to open an application (and I did not pass the loadup screen) I hope that did nothing. then after I turned it off...  I tried to turn it on and use the touchscreen and it did not work at all. I want to know if my warranty covers replacement (I was on sprint for more than 30 days) and that so I have to pay anything. someone can give me a solution to my problem with touchscreen or should I just get a replacement

  Please contact palm tech support online at the 877-426-3777. they can help you to test your device to see if it is broken or not.

  If it's broken, then you must submit for repair. the cost of repair is free, since your unit is still under warranty of 1 year.

  You can also opt to view sprint for replacement since they changed their policy of 30 days warranty for 1 year.
